(By the way – met with with Patrick Awuah this afternoon. In 2002 he founded the first liberal arts university in Africa. He’s a bit younger than I am. Watch his TED talk – he’s even more amazing in person. He’s the kind of person you could mover halfway across the planet to work with. [Don’t worry, I’m not going to])

David Pablo Cohn

I’m David Cohn, known informally as “pablo”. Former Google Research Scientist, now other stuff: writer, flight instructor, folk musician, travel blogger, Antarctic tech support guy, dad and - if you can believe it - farmer.

I help run Natembea, a collaborative farm in Port Townsend that provides land and community for young farmers.

My writing tends toward explorations of how our lives intersect with those of others and with the world around us.
